the TC811E Fault Isolator Module is used analogue

addressable circuits along with other modules and sensors. It
detects a wire to wire short and electrically isolates that
condition from the circuit so that communication is
maintained with unaffected devices on the same circuit.

Two TC811Es isolate a short or open part of the loop

between them. In a star configuration a TC811E can be used
in each leg so that a short on one leg does not affect
communications with the other legs. An integral LED blinks to
indicate normal status and is ON to indicate a short in the
loop.
